How do I set the cooking time?

Troubleshooting

Microwave not turning on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check your home's circuit breaker.

Turntable not rotating

Make sure the glass turntable is seated correctly on its support. Check that the roller ring is properly in place beneath the turntable.

Uneven cooking or heating

Ensure the food is arranged evenly on the turntable. Do not overcrowd the microwave. For larger items, consider rotating or stirring halfway through the cooking time.

Food is not cooking thoroughly

Verify that the correct power setting and time are selected. The 700W output may require longer cooking times than higher-wattage models. Ensure the door is fully closed.
